cAmEroon Cameroon had an estimated 5.6 million malaria cases in 2006. Transmission occurs all year round but is more intense in the south. The number of reported malaria cases jumped from 635 000 in 2006 to nearly 1 650 749 cases in 2008, none of which were confirmed. similarly, the numbers of malaria inpatient cases and deaths increased six- and fourfold, respectively, perhaps due to improving reporting. The national malaria control programme delivered about 800 000 lliNs in 2008, inadequate to cover the 19.5 million people at risk. The programme delivered 2.56 million ACT treatment courses in 2007 and 1.81 million in 2008, adequate to treat the reported malaria cases in the public sector. in the 2006 multiple indicator cluster survey, 20% of households owned an iTN, only 13% of children slept under an iTN and only 2% of children with fever received an ACT. funding for malaria control increased from less than Us$ 2 million in 2002 to over Us$ 26 million in 2008, provided mostly by the Government and the Global fund.
